Description
Welcome to Jim kitchin's take on the popular five dice game. Each round, you get three chances to throw five dice, choosing to keep or rerol some as you see FIT. At the end of your three throws, you must add your total into 1 of 13 scoring categories such as three 1's, full house (three and two of a kind respectively), or Yahtzee, ---- five of a kind. If your dice total doesn't match any free category however, you'll have to put a zero somewhere, and forgo getting that score.
Jim's game not only lets you play with up to 9 human players at one computer, but also gives you the chance to play to popular variants of the game, Double and triple Yahtzee as well, and of course it keeps all the scoring records so you can always try to beat your last score.
As all of Jim’s games install into the same folder you’ll need to install The winkit installer found here, which also adds many of the visual basic dependencies necessary to run not only Jim’s games, but many other’s on modern Windows, though if you have those already you can just download the above file.
Jim Kitchin sadly passed away on August the 2nd, 2015. To learn more about the late great Jim Kitchin and his vast collection of games, you can Visit the Kitchinsinc page on the Audiogames archive site Which also contains one giant installer so that you can get all of Jim's games in one handy package. Goodbye Jim, you will be sorely missed.
